The longest part of the NBA offseason is undoubtedly the month of August, as free agency has almost entirely slowed down and training camp is still nearly two months away. This August will go by quicker because of the Olympics going on, but the Dallas Mavericks have also made a couple of moves recently that fans are excited about.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Some Philadelphia Phillies fans and pundits have said that former second-round pick Scott Kingery should be called up after a miserable July that saw the team lack success at the plate. In 90 games with Triple-A Lehigh Valley this season Kingery has a .275/.326/.526 line with 22 home runs and 55 RBI, along with 18 stolen bases and 106 strikeouts. He also has a .337 BABIP and a 113 wRC+ so far to go with a 7.2% walk rate and a 29.3% strikeout rate. In 19 games in July, Kingery had a .983 OPS and seven home runs. So far, he has continued that success into August, with a 1.212 OPS and one home run in three games. Despite these impressive numbers, there’s no need to call Kingery up to the major league club.
